Answer:

The correct option is C) Store B is reducing prices by 5% more than Store A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Store B is advertising a sale that will reduce prices on all merchandise by one over five.

Convert one over five in percentage as shown below:

\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{5}\times{\frac{20}{20}}

\frac{1}{5}=\frac{20}{100}

\frac{1}{5}=20\%

Thus, the store B reduce the prices by 20%.

Store A reduces the prices on all merchandise by 15%.

From the above calculation, it is clear that store B reduces more prices by 5%.

Therefore, the correct option is C) Store B is reducing prices by 5% more than Store A.

How to solve 4/7y-2 = 3/7 + 3/14
lisabon 2012 [21]
Solution

1) Simplify \frac{4}{7y}<span> to </span>\frac{4y}{7}
\frac{4y}{7} <span>−2= </span>\frac{3}{7} + \frac{3}{14}

2) Simplify \frac{3}{7} + \frac{3}{14} <span>to <span>914</span>
</span>\frac{4y}{7} <span>−2= </span>\frac{9}{14}

3) <span>Add 2 to both sides
</span>\frac{4y}{7} = \frac{9}{14} <span>+2
</span>
4) Simplify \frac{9}{14&#10;} <span><span>+2</span> to </span>\frac{37}{14}
\frac{4y}{7} = \frac{37}{14}

5) <span>Multiply both sides by 7
</span><span>4y= </span>\frac{37}{14} <span>×7
</span>
6) Simplify \frac{37}{14} <span><span>×7</span> to </span>\frac{259}{14}
\frac{4y}{7} =\frac{259}{14}

7) Simplify \frac{259}{14}<span> to </span>\frac{37}{2}
\frac{4y}{7} = \frac{37}{2}

8) <span>Divide both sides by 4
</span>y= \frac{37}{2} <span>×4
</span>
9) <span>Simplify <span>2×4</span> to 8
</span><span>y=</span>\frac{37}{8}
